Comment (by SergeyBiryukov):

 In [changeset:"53933" 53933]:
 {{{
 #!CommitTicketReference repository="" revision="53933"
 Themes: Add support for `Update URI` header.

 This allows third-party themes to avoid accidentally being overwritten
 with an update of a theme of a similar name from the WordPress.org Theme
 Directory.

 Additionally, introduce the `update_themes_{$hostname}` filter, which
 third-party themes can use to offer updates for a given hostname.

 If set, the `Update URI` header field should be a URI and have a unique
 hostname.

 Some examples include:

 * `https://wordpress.org/themes/example-theme/`
 * `https://example.com/my-theme/`
 * `my-custom-theme-name`

 `Update URI: false` also works, and unless there is code handling the
 `false` hostname, the theme will never get an update notification.

 If the header is present, the WordPress.org API will currently only return
 updates for the theme if it matches the following format:

 * `https://wordpress.org/themes/{$slug}/`
 * `w.org/theme/{$slug}`

 If the header has any other value, the API will not return a result and
 will ignore the theme for update purposes.

 Follow-up to [50921].
